Does juicing really work for weight loss?

Juicing for Weight Loss and Cleansing Juicing might seem like a simple way to lose weight, but it can backfire. On a juice-only diet, you may not get enough fiber or protein to make you full.

webmd.com - Juicing: How Healthy Is It? - WebMD

Ready to give juicing a whirl? It's an easy way to get more fruits and veggies into your diet. Before you get started, you should know a few things about what you can expect juicing to do for you, and what's just hype. The Biggest Advantage “If you’re not big into fruits and vegetables, it’s a good way to get them in," says nutritionist Jennifer Barr, RD, of Wilmington, DE. You should still eat fruits and vegetables, too, says Manuel Villacorta, RD, founder of Eating Free, a weight management program. Aim to eat two whole fruits and three to four vegetables a day. Choose them in different colors, so you get a good mix of vitamins and minerals, Barr says. “If you’re not big into fruits and vegetables, it’s a good way to get them in." -- Jennifer Barr, RD Fiber Factor When you juice, you don't get the fiber that's in whole fruits and vegetables. Juicing machines extract the juice and leave behind the pulp, which has fiber. So you don't miss out on the fiber, you can add some of the pulp back into the juice or use it in cooking. Barr adds it to muffin batter, or to make broth for cooking soup, rice, and pasta. That's "going the extra step to fortify your meals," she says.
